The Birth of Jesus Christ, King of Kings

For God so loved us that He gave His only begotten Son to be born of a woman,to suffer at the hands of His own creation and then to lay down His life in substitution for ours so that we could have the chance of salvation and eternal life with Him. No greater gift than this could be given to another than He lay down His life in exchange for ours.
